All Time Low have filed a libel lawsuit against the people who have claimed on social media that the group sexually harassed or assaulted teen fans.The band issued a statement last year denying all allegations, writing: “The allegations being brought against us are absolutely and unequivocally false.“When a TikTok video gained traction a few weeks ago alluding to inappropriate behaviour within our camp, we chose not to respond because of the glaring inconsistencies in the story and the apparent reluctance to mention us by name,” the statement continued.“We felt that a response would have elevated and escalated an outright lie and in doing so robbed actual victims of abuse of their very real and very important collective voice. We believe victims.
Joss Whedon Opens Up About Past Misconduct Allegations; ‘Justice League’ Actor Ray Fisher Responds
17.01.2022 - 23:19 / deadline.com
After being accused in July 2020 by Justice League actor Ray Fisher for “gross, abusive, unprofessional” conduct during the production of the 2017 Warner Bros movie, filmmaker Joss Whedon has finally responded to that accusation in a New York profile, as well as to the string of allegations that followed from Gal Gadot and former Buffy the Vampire colleagues.
The profile “The Undoing of Joss Whedon,” published Monday morning, also contained new misconduct claims against Whedon, which he also fields.
The loud social media slam by Fisher, who played Cyborg in the film, against Whedon back in 2020 resulted in WarnerMedia conducting an internal investigation into what went sideways on Justice League, resulting in the media conglom vaguely stating in December of that year that “remedial action has been taken,” with fanboy genre creator Whedon exiting the HBO series he created, The Nevers, a month prior.
In regards to Fisher’s claims that Whedon lightened the actor’s skin complexion and cut down Cyborg’s storyline, the Justice League co-scribe and director of additional scenes (he stepped in to complete the movie after Zack Snyder stepped back due to a personal family tragedy), tells New York‘s Lila Shapiro that he was brightening the entire movie in postproduction, including all faces. Whedon said he cut down Cyborg’s role (which was restored and expanded on in last year’s Snyder cut of the film on HBO Max) because it “logically made no sense,” and felt the acting was bad — something sources familiar with the project back up in the profile, with test-screening viewers seeing Cyborg as “the worst of all the characters in the film.”
Whedon says he spent hours discussing the changes with Fisher and that their discourse was friendly.
